No one would want to ask resort owners to evict paidup or reserved guests to make room for the 100 or so White House staff members and newsmen who normally make up the President's vacation entourage. House and Senate Republican leaders Joseph W. Martin Jr. (Mass.) and William F. Know land (Calif.) were red-faced at the last meeting between Eisen hower and his GOP leaders. But it had nothing to do with the White House session. Martin's ruddy complexion was marred by a badly peeling nose. He said he got too much sun when he accompanied Vice President Richard M. Nixon to Plymouth, Mass., for ceremonies honoring the Mayflower II. "I'm afaird I burn instead of tan," Martin complained. Knowland credited his com plexion to the California sun which was shinging brightly dur ing his trip home to attend his daughter's weddng. The President had some fun with another president the other day college senior James R. McDonald of the Future Teach ers of America. Eisenhower laughingly related fo a later caller how. when Mc Donald's group came into his of- Venus Surpasses Jupiter In Magnitude in Heavens fice, he said to James: "Hello, Mr. President." Eisenhower recalled that Mc Donald "didn't know what to answer." The President is watching his diet more carefully than ever since his recent stomach upset. He took it easy, for example, at the state dinner at the governors conference in Williamsburg. The menu featured consomme; Chesapeake Bay crab; roast sir loin of prime southwest Virginia beef; green beans with sauteed almonds; and a desesrt of melon slices with Smithfield ham; and a dessert of governor s mansion tipsy squire" a mint concoc tion. On the wine list was New York sherry, Ohio "rhine wine," a burgundy from California and a champagne from New Jersey. Eisenhower steered clear of the crab and lightly sampled the wines. Hollywood (D1 The world's I leading example of glamour has decided the new young stars of V Hollywood have any. Marlene Die- w h o pales even Eva Gardner and Rita Hayworth when it comes to true glam our, isn't quite s ut e what glamour is. She thinks "it has something to do with authority." But whatever the ingredient is, the new beauties of the screen don't have it, she ob served with a langorous shrug. There are no glamourous stars today because the people who give glamour to these wom en are not around producers such as Irving Thalberg, L. B. Mayer," reflected Dietrich. They took those little girls and did something with them. Now," she sighed, "They measure them. It's a Disease 'This bosom business is a na tional American disease. It has spread everywhere, to England, to Italy. Like Coca-Cola. Except for Audrey Hepburn she's in a class by herself! She's European. It's very reas suring and wonderful that with all these girls who are wired for sound in the front there still is Audrey. The real glamour women In the history of movies are very few. There have not been many, just a handful. Today the French actresses probably have glamour, but the stars here just don t. B FAT BE1ITLKY Jupiter, largest planet in the Mat's family, which for the past Jty months has ranked third or nwt to Um moon in brillance has 3m to relinquish this honored jWititioa to Venus, one of the anpller planetai worlds. During the latter part of 1956 and the early months of 1957, Venus appeared low on the east ern horizon before sunrise as a brilliant "morning star" until its nearness to the sun in early March rendered it invisible. Mar Be Obserred Now this most brilliant of planets has reached the place in its orbital journey where it may again be observed by earth-dwellers. It may be seen as a brilli ant star-like object low on the western horizon for about an hour after sunset. Although Jupiter is larger than all the rest of the eight planets put together, it is sur passed in magnitude or brilli ance by Venus, whose diameter is slightly less than the diameter of the earth. The earth's "sister olanet" as Venus is often called is entirely surrounded by clouds which have a high albedo or re- flectine power. Also, it is much nearer the sun than the "king of planets Jupiter, too, is surrounded by clouds but their reflecting power is not so great as the clouds en closing Venus, and Jupiter is more than 450 million miles far ther from the sun than is the beautiful Venus. While the king of planets is more than 1,300 times as large as the "goddess of love ami beauty" Venus is easily the most brilliant. Star-like Object In the deepening twilight, Ju piter may be seen in the south western heavens as a very bright, star-like object beaming with a. steady, non-twinkling light. About midnight it sinks from view beneath the western skyline. Camped recently on the top of a mountain in Idaho, Venus and Jupiter were observed as night's dark mantle spread over the landscape. Venus, brighter of the two, remained visible for little more than an hour. Jupiter continued its slow journey down the "hills of heav en" brightening perceptibly as it neared the western horizon, un til, about 11 p.m. it seemed more brilliant than Venus had appear-; ed earlier in the evening. Nerer At Midnight Venus is never seen in the midnight sky. During its peribds i of visibility this planet will eith er be an "evening star" appear- j ing at sunset and setting from j one to three hours later, or a j "morning star" rising from one; to three hours before sunrise! and disappearing at daylight. i To earthly inhabitants Venus i seems to travel back and forth in a straight line from one side of the sun to the other. This is due to the fact that the earth's "sister planet" is nearer to the sun than the earth is. Whenever the earth, sun, anad Venus are in a straight line Venus is invisible to us, as the greater light of the sun oblit erates the lesser rays of the planet. Venus varies in magnitude ac cording to its angular distance from the sun as viewed from the earth. It will reach its point of greatest brilliance, magnitude -4.4, on Dec. 23, 1957. During the Christmas season this brilli ant planet will be a beautiful reminder of the Star of Bethle hem. Given clear skies, Venus may sometimes be seen in the day light during its times of great est magnitude. In World War II sky watchers occasionally re ported an enemy balloon which proved to be none other than the "goddess of love and beauty." Ancient Greeks, thinking Ven us was two different stars gave it two names; Phosphoros when observable in the morning and Hesperus when it could be seen in the evening.

OF) Mem bers of the Metal Trades Council and office workers unions went on strike Monday at Sandia Corp., one of the nation's vital nuclear installations.

New Important Role These days Marlene is work ing on her most important and most dramatic role in many years, the title role ior "Wit ness for the Prosecution," which independent producer Arthur Hornblow is making from the stage hit Between scenes today Marlene sat on her set, surrounded by ad mirers such as director Billy Wilder and co-stars Charles Laughton and Tyrone Power. Her skirt was pulled above her knees. It was a picture of her usual mischievous sultriness, al most of arrogance, such as the gesture that started her to star dom when as an extra she ad justed her monocle in a crowd scene in a German film. In "Witness for the Prosecu tion" Marlene wears a mannish, slouch hat. It's an exact copy of the hat she wore when she first arrived in Hollywood in 1930. In measurements and face as well as hat, the star still looks the same. "I wore the hat then in public ity stills, but this is the first time I have worn it in a film. I usually play shady ladies in feathers," she said. Before the thermometer was invented physicians measured the degree of bodily heat with their hands. Tueedir.
